From Upper Saucon Township:
Upper Saucon Township has contracted with Mid-State Utility Contractors, Inc. to perform a replacement of the water main along Limeport Pike between Lanark Road and W. Saucon Valley Road. The Township will replace the existing 3-inch water main with an 8-inch water main. The purpose of the project is to provide more reliable water service pressures and adequate fire flow protection along Limeport Pike.
